Villars used the term gnomide to refer to female gnomes (often "gnomid" in English translations). Modern fiction instead uses the word "gnomess" to refer to female gnomes. In 19th-century fiction, the chthonic gnome became a sort of antithesis to the more airy or luminous fairy.

How do you pronounce "Eladrin"?
Eladrin are a subrace of elves, similar to wood, high, and drow. They all have darkvision, +2 dex, perception proficiency, etc.
If the racial ability says it is a trait (such as the eladrin's Fey Step or the firbolg's Hidden Step), then no, it does not count as a spell. WOTC is very particular about what is and is not a spell. If the word "spell" is not in the description, it is not one.
